CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is a continuation of International Patent Application No. PCT/CN2015/086962, filed on Aug. 14, 2015, which claims priority to International Patent Application No. PCT/CN2015/074420, filed on Mar. 17, 2015, both of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entireties.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the mobile communications field, and in particular, to a data demodulation method, user equipment, a base station, and a system.

BACKGROUND

With development of technologies, users have more requirements for communication in a high-speed scenario. For example, users perform communication on a running high-speed train. When user equipment (UE) is in a high-speed moving state, for received downlink data, a relatively large Doppler frequency shift may occur, resulting in a low downlink data throughput of the UE.

In the prior art, to increase a downlink data throughput of UE in a high-speed moving state, when downlink data received by the UE is demodulated, a Doppler frequency shift is usually first estimated according to a common reference signal (CRS). When a demodulation reference signal (DMRS) is demodulated, compensation is performed using the estimated frequency shift to improve demodulation performance of the DMRS, so as to increase the downlink data throughput of the UE.

The Doppler frequency shift is relatively large in the high-speed scenario, and a conventional frequency shift estimation method cannot achieve an expected effect and has low precision. Therefore, using the prior art data demodulation method cannot effectively increase the downlink data throughput of the UE in the high-speed moving state, and the downlink data throughput of the UE in the high-speed moving state is still relatively low.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, the following describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. The described embodiments are a part rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

A data demodulation method according to the embodiments of the present disclosure may be applied to various high-speed scenarios, for example, mobile communication on a high-speed railway, mobile communication on an aircraft, or the like. For ease of description, the mobile communication on the high-speed railway is used as an example for description.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of an application scenario of a data demodulation method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The data demodulation method may be applied to a 3rd Generation (3G) Mobile Communication network, or may be applied to a Long Term Evolution (LTE) network. For ease of description, the LTE network is used as example for description. In an evolved-universal terrestrial radio access network (E-UTRAN) communications system 100 in the LTE network. Referring to FIG. 1, the E-UTRAN communications system 100 includes several base stations 110 and another network entity to support communication between several UEs 120. Some UEs 120 are on a running high-speed train (HST). For these UEs 120, the data demodulation method according to this embodiment of the present disclosure may be used to demodulate downlink data received from the base stations 110.

The base station 110 may be an evolved NodeB (eNB) in the LTE. One base station 110 may support/manage one or more cells. When the UE 120 needs to communicate with a network, it selects a cell to initiate access.

The UE 120 may also be referred to as a mobile terminal (MT), a mobile station (MS), or the like, and may communicate with one or more core networks using a radio access network (RAN).

A core network device 130 is connected to one or more base stations 110, and the core network device 130 includes a mobility management entity (MME).

The data demodulation method according to this embodiment of the present disclosure may be applied to different communications systems. Specific base station devices vary with different communications systems, and specifically, may be a base station controller (BSC), a radio network controller (RNC), an eNB, or a Node B.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a data demodulation method according to Embodiment 1 of the present disclosure. The method is executed by UE. Referring to FIG. 2, the method includes the following steps.

Step 201: The UE obtains, from a base station, notification information indicating that the UE is in a high-speed moving state.

There are multiple scenarios in which the UE is in the high-speed moving state. One typical application scenario is that the UE is on a running HST. In this case, the UE is covered by a high-speed railway dedicated network. This scenario is called a high-speed railway dedicated network coverage scenario. After the UE enters the high-speed railway dedicated network coverage scenario, if the UE is in an idle state, the UE may learn, by reading a system message, that the UE is in the high-speed moving state; and if the UE is in a connected state, the UE may learn, by reading a system message or by reading network dedicated signaling, that the UE is in the high-speed moving state.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the base station may also indicate, using an implicit manner, that the UE is in the high-speed moving state. For example, a cell identifier of a high-speed railway dedicated network cell is carried in a system message. After receiving the system message, the UE may determine, by comparing a current cell identifier with the cell identifier of the high-speed railway dedicated network cell, that the UE is in the high-speed railway dedicated network cell and that the UE is in the high-speed moving state.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE may obtain a RRC connection reconfiguration message from the base station, where a first indicator bit in the RRC connection reconfiguration message is used to indicate that the UE is in the high-speed moving state; or the UE may obtain a system message from the base station, where a second indicator bit in the system message is used to indicate that the UE is in the high-speed moving state; or the UE obtains a system message from the base station, where the system message carries a cell identifier of a high-speed railway dedicated network cell. The first indicator bit is one bit of the RRC connection reconfiguration message. The first indicator bit may be predetermined as 0, representing the high-speed state; or the first indicator bit may be predetermined as 1, representing the high-speed state. The second indicator bit is one bit of the system message. The second indicator bit may be predetermined as 0, representing the high-speed state; or the second indicator bit may be predetermined as 1, representing the high-speed state. The UE may directly obtain, from the base station, notification information indicating that the UE is in the high-speed moving state; or the UE may obtain, from the base station, other notification information that may be used to determine that the UE is in the high-speed moving state, and the UE determines, according to the other notification information obtained from the base station that may be used to determine that the UE is in the high-speed moving state, that the UE is in the high-speed moving state.

In one possible implementation of this embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE obtains, from the base station, notification information indicating that the UE is in a high-speed railway dedicated network, and determines, according to the notification information, that the UE is in the high-speed moving state.

In another possible implementation of this embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE obtains a speed stage of the UE from the base station, and determines, when the speed stage of the UE satisfies a preset condition, that the UE is in the high-speed moving state.

The speed stage of the UE means a range of a speed of the UE. The base station may add an information element (IE) into the RRC dedicated signaling or the system message sent to the UE, to indicate the speed stage of the UE using the added IE. A variable name and a variable type of the IE are not limited. For example, the speed stage of the UE is indicated using an enumerated variable. For example,

normal: represents a speed of the UE: speed<100 km/h

medium: represents a speed of UE: 100 km/h<speed<200 km/h

high: represents a speed of the UE: 200 km/h<speed<300 km/h

very high: represents a speed of the UE: speed>300 km/h

After obtaining the speed stage of the UE, the UE may determine, according to the preset condition, whether the UE is in the high-speed moving state. For example, when the speed stage of the UE is high, if the preset condition is that it is considered that the UE is in the high-speed moving state when the speed of the UE exceeds 200 km/h, then the UE determines that the UE is in the high-speed moving state; and if the preset condition is that it is considered that the UE is in the high-speed moving state only when the speed of the UE exceeds 300 km/h, then the UE determines that the UE is in a non-high-speed moving state.

The speed stages are not limited to the foregoing specific numeral values. The base station may determine a speed stage of the UE according to a location determined on a network side, or using another method. No limitation is imposed in the present disclosure.

In another possible implementation of this embodiment of the present disclosure, the UE obtains a cell identifier list of high-speed railway dedicated network cells from the base station, and determines, when a cell identifier of a cell in which the UE is currently located exists in the cell identifier list, that the UE is in the high-speed moving state.

The base station may add an IE into the system message to indicate the cell identifier list of the high-speed railway dedicated network cell using the IE. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the system message added with the IE may be delivered by either a base station in the high-speed railway dedicated network or a base station in a public network, so that the UE can obtain the cell identifier list of high-speed railway dedicated network cells before entering a high-speed railway dedicated network cell.

In addition, the UE may send capability indication information to the base station before obtaining, from the base station, the notification information indicating that the UE is in a high-speed moving state. The capability indication information is used to indicate that the UE supports time-frequency synchronization processing in a high-speed scenario and demodulation processing in the high-speed scenario.

Step 202: Perform time-frequency synchronization processing on first downlink data according to the notification information to obtain second downlink data.

An adjustment frequency in the time-frequency synchronization processing is greater than an adjustment frequency that is at a time when the UE is in a non-high-speed moving state, and an adjustment coefficient used for loop filtering in the time-frequency synchronization processing is greater than an adjustment coefficient that is at the time when the UE is in the non-high-speed moving state.

The first downlink data may be original downlink data received by the UE.

A purpose of fast convergence of a time shift and a frequency shift may be achieved by speeding up the adjustment frequency in time-frequency synchronization and using a larger adjustment coefficient in the loop filtering. A specific numeral value of the adjustment frequency may be obtained by means of commissioning, and the commissioning is performed on different chips or different UEs.

In this embodiment of present disclosure, the UE uses a larger adjustment coefficient in loop filtering when performing the time-frequency synchronization processing on the downlink data. Configuration of this parameter may affect frequency tracking performance. Dynamic performance and static performance are a pair of contradictory performances. A larger adjustment coefficient may bring better dynamic tracking performance at the expense of stability of the static performance.

Step 203: Perform demodulation processing on the second downlink data to obtain third downlink data.

In the demodulation processing, TTI filtering for a channel estimation is not performed, or a filtering coefficient as a weight of a current TTI of a channel estimation is greater than a filtering coefficient as a weight of a TTI that is at the time when the UE is in the non-high-speed moving state for a channel estimation.

After the time-frequency synchronization processing is performed on the first downlink data to obtain the second downlink data, the demodulation processing is then performed on the second downlink data to obtain the third downlink data.

During channel estimation in the demodulation processing, the speed of the UE may be staged. Each speed stage is corresponding to a different Wiener filtering coefficient. After the notification information indicating that the UE is in a high-speed moving state is obtained, a Wiener filtering coefficient applicable to the high-speed scenario is used. In addition, a current TTI and a previous TTI may be used when channel estimation is performed. In the high-speed scenario, channels change rapidly, and channel correlation with a history TTI is lower than that in a common scenario. A weight of the current TTI may be increased by modifying weighting coefficients for different TTIs.

For example, when a frequency shift is estimated, a weight of a historical frequency shift in the frequency shift estimation and a filtering coefficient of a current residual frequency shift need to be adjusted:

${f_{d}(k)} = {{\sum\limits_{i = {k - m - 1}}^{k - 1}\;{\alpha_{i} \cdot {f_{d}(i)}}} + {\beta \cdot {{ɛ_{d}(k)}.}}}$

In a low-speed scenario, to obtain relatively stable frequency shift estimation, weighted averaging needs to be performed on frequency shift values in a time period. A time window is generally tens of milliseconds based on different implementations, that is, a value of m in the foregoing formula. α_(i) represents a weighting coefficient of a frequency shift at each historical time point, and in a cumulative average algorithm, a value of α_(i) is

$\alpha_{i} = {\frac{1}{m}.}$ When the UE is in the high-speed scenario, timeliness of the frequency shift tracking is obtained at the expense of a certain extent of stability in the frequency shift estimation. On one hand, a filtering window can be shortened to decrease the value of m. On the other hand, α_(i) can be adjusted to reduce a coefficient of a weighted item at a longer distance and increase a coefficient of a weighted item at a smaller distance. In addition, β, a filtering coefficient of a current residual frequency shift, also needs to be increased to increase a weight of the current residual frequency shift in f_(d)(k), and so on.

This embodiment of the present disclosure provides a data demodulation method. The method includes first obtaining notification information indicating that UE is in a high-speed moving state; then performing time-frequency synchronization processing on first downlink data according to the notification information to obtain second downlink data, where an adjustment frequency in the time-frequency synchronization processing is greater than an adjustment frequency that is at a time when the UE is in a non-high-speed moving state, and an adjustment coefficient used for loop filtering in the time-frequency synchronization processing is greater than an adjustment coefficient that is at the time when the UE is in the non-high-speed moving state; and then performing demodulation processing on the second downlink data to obtain third downlink data, where in the demodulation processing, inter-TTIs filtering for a channel estimation is not performed, or a filtering coefficient as a weight of a current TTI for a channel estimation is greater than a filtering coefficient as a weight of a TTI that is at the time when the UE is in the non-high-speed moving state for a channel estimation. Downlink data received by the UE in a high-speed scenario has a different characteristic from that in a conventional scenario, and a frequency shift of the downlink data received by the UE in the high-speed scenario changes rapidly. After that the UE is in the high-speed moving state is learnt by obtaining the notification information, a method for increasing some parameters speeds up adjustment of the frequency shift estimation, so that the UE obtains good downlink demodulation performance and improves a downlink data throughput of the UE.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a data demodulation method according to Embodiment 2 of the present disclosure. The method is executed by a base station. Referring to FIG. 3, the method includes the following steps.

Step 301: Establish a connection to UE.

When a dedicated network is used for coverage in a high-speed scenario, that is, a specific area is covered by a specific base station, after establishing the connection to the UE, the base station may send, to the UE, notification information that the UE is in the high-speed moving state.

Application scenarios of this embodiment of the present disclosure not only include a high-speed railway dedicated network coverage scenario, but also include a public network coverage scenario. In the high-speed railway dedicated network coverage scenario, the UE may be in the high-speed moving state or a non-high-speed moving state. In the public network coverage scenario, the UE may also be in the high-speed moving state or a non-high-speed moving state. To avoid sending, to the UE in the non-high-speed moving state, the notification information that the UE is in a high-speed moving state, the base station may first estimate a moving speed of the UE, and when the moving speed is greater than a speed threshold, sends, to the UE, the notification information that the UE is in a high-speed moving state.

The moving speed of the UE may be estimated using, but not limited to, the following manners.

Manner 1: Obtain a moving state reported by the UE using an IE: When accessing a network, the UE that supports reporting of a moving state may include an IE about the moving state of the UE into a signaling RRC connection establishment completion message sent to the base station. The base station may read a speed stage of the UE from the received message.

Manner 2: Estimate a moving speed of the UE according to a quantity of UE switching times: Speed stages are divided according to a quantity of UE switching times in unit time. For example, the UE switches the speed for more than five switching times within one minute, and this is defined as a high-speed.

Manner 3: Perform Doppler estimation: The base station determines a speed stage of the UE according to a Doppler frequency shift of an uplink signal of the UE. For example, for more than 1000 Hz, a high speed is determined.

Manner 4: Locate the UE on a network side: The base station may obtain location information of the UE using a positioning method such as Enhanced Cell ID (ECID) and Observed Time Difference of Arrival (OTDOA). The network side may obtain UE speed information according to UE location change information, so as to divide the UE speed into speed stages, for example, a speed greater than 200 km/h is a high speed.

Manner 5: Obtain application layer data: The base station obtains UE speed data information from the application layer including speed information.

Step 302: Send, to the UE, notification information that the UE is in a high-speed moving state, so that the UE performs time-frequency synchronization processing on first downlink data according to the notification information to obtain second downlink data, where an adjustment frequency in the time-frequency synchronization processing is greater than an adjustment frequency that is at a time when the UE is in a non-high-speed moving state, and an adjustment coefficient used for loop filtering in the time-frequency synchronization processing is greater than an adjustment coefficient that is at the time when the UE is in the non-high-speed moving state; and performs demodulation processing on the second downlink data to obtain third downlink data, where in the demodulation processing, inter-TTIs filtering for a channel estimation is not performed, or a filtering coefficient as a weight of a current TTI for a channel estimation is greater than a filtering coefficient as a weight of a TTI that is at the time when the UE is in the non-high-speed moving state for a channel estimation.

In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the notification information may be information specifically used to indicate that the UE is in the high-speed moving state, or may be existing information. One bit used to indicate that the UE is in the high-speed moving state is added into the existing information. Preferably, the base station may send an RRC connection reconfiguration message to the UE, where a first indicator bit in the RRC connection reconfiguration message is used to indicate that the UE is in the high-speed moving state; or the base station may send a system message to the UE, where a second indicator bit in the system message is used to indicate that the UE is in the high-speed moving state; or sends a system message to the UE, where the system message carries a cell identifier of a high-speed railway dedicated network cell.

In this embodiment of present disclosure, the base station may directly send, to the UE, the notification information that the UE is in a high-speed moving state, or may send, to the UE using an implicit manner, the notification information that the UE is in a high-speed moving state. The following manners may be included: sending, to the UE, notification information indicating that the UE is in a high-speed railway dedicated network, so that the UE determines, according to the notification information, that the UE is in the high-speed moving state; or directly sending, to the UE, notification information indicating that the UE is in the high-speed moving state; or sending a speed stage of the UE to the UE, so that the UE determines, when the speed stage satisfies a preset condition, that the UE is in the high-speed moving state.

Optionally, before sending, to the UE, the notification information that the UE is in a high-speed moving state, the base station may first receive capability indication information sent by the UE. The capability indication information is used to indicate that the UE supports time-frequency synchronization processing in a high-speed scenario and demodulation processing in the high-speed scenario.
